Heres some more info ....

Im using Westlands West Advance + Water Saving Soil

Using after 5 days a 1/8 strength nute solution of B&Q Organic Tomato Food 4-6-2 (N-P-K)

I had them under 2x 18w Fluoro tubes for the first week, and i planned on putting them under my 125w enviro but i smashed it so i have them under my 70w hps

The temp is around 24-26c and humidity is at 40-45%

Thank you, tech

ok if I were you, and I do grow a lot from seed and clone, I would only give them water for noe. Fresh clean nutral water. then wait and let them get a bit stronger before you bulk them up with nutes.


good luck~

but one of them looks fine so i dont think its the nutes

and the reason i giv em nutes is i tried twice before with this siol/setup and they died, so i figured i try with nutes and they are still alive.

Yeah, before cloning look at a good cloning board, make sure to sterilize everything, get cloning get, or paste, paste is better(stays on longer), and dont over water, no nutes until transplanted, and i think best and quickest is rockwool...

Westland -

this soil already has nutes in it. This could be why your last two grows died, so now you are double feeding your plants. It's the nutes if you don't think so then fine but I'm telling you that's what it is....food for seedlings = death

I know I did read, what I was saying was that you overnuted last time too, the soil has nutes in it. So the first two died due to soil having too much food for seedlings, and now you are doing it again and adding food on top of it so it will burn the seedlings bad. Soil based plants need no food until about week 3 or so....less is better. You're soil says it has food for up to 5 weeks in it already.

i understand you gygax, I understand! lmao. But yeah just give them water . And overwatering(a.k.a. drowning) plants occurs not when you add too much water in one watering but rather when you dont let the soil dry out and water while the plants are still wett. never allowing the nescessary oxygen to reach the roots. I mist my seedlings rather than pouring water. it is soo much easier.

good luck my friend~

yes just run some clean pure water until you get a good run off from the bottom and then let them judt dry out and see what happens. you may need to repeat. But for now no NUTES!.

you will be ok just be patient~

yeah if the pot is 3 gallons try running 6 gallons through or even more....although I have never flushed a seedling, do you think the root system is ok to flush?
